eBay and Craigslist finds

Looks like you made a friend

I sent to him
"Hi can I pay in monthly instalments over the next 40 years for my Bike please? Or don't bike thieves offer finance?"

Ha!!

I basically said to him ebay and plod are onto you, expect a knock at your door

thats funny. the last time i saw something like that was a few years ago when people were outraged at the price people were re selling diana tribute concert tickets (or was it glastonbury). nearly every auction was mullered as they say

I think he is symptomatic of the failure within our society to deal with inner city youth culture.
Either that or his is a thieving stupid little pusstule.

Hmmmm. Difficult choice...

Come on people bid away! it must be worth at least £500,000, it seems the "economic crisis" has no effect on the sale of bikes....

Hey! That's a new one, that wasn't there before...?!

Hey! That's a new one, that wasn't there before...?!

I know i just found it, i love the fact there is snow on the ground...

http://www.gumtree.com/london/89/38950689.html

Good deal, or no good deal?

I just bid £800l on it. Now going to ask him if the price includes the snow.

...and the beautiful wooden fencing, god this is fun :)

i wonder how many more bikes he will try to sell.

out of curiosity i wanted to see if our friend had the highest priced items. but he hasnt.

heres the direct link as it will disappear in 2 hours or so ....shock.....

Hmmm, the guy must realise that he isn't going to get £82k for it. He must realise he's been sussed. Why isn't he pulling the auction and legging it?

I have fired some superficially honest questions at him via my real e bay account and this is the reply:
**soory for not answering any questions i have been very busy these 2 days with relitives coming from abroad that i havent even used the computer. i am know answering as many questions as i can. but somepeole are been stupid putting high bids and i have reported it to ebay. **
sorry for any hassel.

So I asked him how much he really wanted for it and where he would like to meet.
Awaits reply.

T....e .i.

it's funny isn't it? report summat stolen or illegal on gumtree and they actually took action, but on ebay, it take forever for them to take action.

I have asked him if he would except a buy it now offer of £1,000,000.... still no reply, it seems he's getting greedy and thinks they are worth more :)

I've already reported him to eBay........

They are fuckin useless

Ok, I have found all the original pictures...

haha, stupid seller, it was easy to trace them, go onto the auction, right click the image, properties, take the alternative text and google it. Silly bugger has just used the default flickr hotlink code... google search of the alternative text/discription gives the flickr page as the first result... lol

Good work on the bidding, keep it up!

I just bid £800l on it. Now going to ask him if the price includes the snow.

Shit! I'm on £30K, you outbid me, don't think it's worth much more than £45K tbh though

Well done nebula!!!

So they're not even nicked, he's just doing a scam to rob the 'customer' on pick up?? WAC!!!

a couple of days ago i asked if it was possible to view before the end of the auction. no reply but i guess thats because he was away , it all makes sense now.

Is no one interested in the sim cards? i reckon they are worth a bid, perhaps even the old iraq dinar...

Specialized Crossroads?? Methinks he may be slightly puzzled about what he is selling....

Anyway, "bike" (the one with the green deep V's) currently looks like a bargain compared to all the others.....

...what a total D*&$head

it already been mentioned in the stolen topic, they're simply making people bid on them, force them to come round to pick it up with cash in hand.

nick them and run away, probably kill them but who know.
